for when you can't ber-it

desmos suggests 12-16 untappers, 12-14 ramp sources (3 untappers double as ramp), 12 pieces of protection, and 38 lands

Also in the shower I came up with an epic Unctus, Grand Metatect line that only takes 2 cards in hand and {4}{W} (in addition to Aphetto Alchemist or two nerfed versions+1 mana). Simply draw through your deck for myr welder and swift reconfiguration. Drop myr and enchant it. Tap to exile the staff of domination. Untap for {1}, exile the gilded lotus. Untap once more with alchemist. Now you have infinite mana. Exile Halo fountain, and use the mana to activate its first ability for 15 1/1s by tapping Unctus, then tap down your board, then untap 15 to win. Easy! Additionally the line just needs {3}{W} if you have 3 cards in hand; just dig for sol ring.

Things to maybe cut: Notion Thief, Conj Closet, Xenic Geist, Tidal Control, Irrigated farmland/other taplands
